This is our first stay in this resort and the hotel was very nice and rooms are spacious and adequate.Breakfast was the best and i should say the best I have ever experience in my travelsbut the swimming pool area was a bit worn out and dirty and the beach front for parasailing was not even and my kid fell into the sea when the parasailing came down whereas it was perfect landing when we stayed at Golden Sands hotel.

Services was excellent and will come again soon.

Thank you for your review of our property. We are pleased to hear that you had an excellent stay with us, and your compliments on our breakfast spread.

We are disappointed to hear that our swimming pool was not up to your expectation despite our daily cleaning and removing dried leaves from the pools. We have shared your comments with our Recreation Team to look into the cleanliness of the swimming pools.

The resort are located on a public beach and the parasailing are conducted by a private water sports operators. We will inform them to be more cautions in their activities on the beach. We do discourage guests from taking part in the water sports activities run by these private operators.

We look forward to your many more happy returns to the Shangri-La's Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa.

We went there with our children and really enjoyed our stay. Rooms very very nice and the staff extremely friendly, always looking for your confort. The buffet were excellent with plent of choice.We highly recommend that hotel.

This is our third stay at the Rasa Wing of this hotel. It is wonderful to be greeted by the same staff year after year and the welcome is genuine. The Rasa Wing room was wonderful as ever. Beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean.

It is always such a treat to have the Rasa Wing pool that is adults only. A calm oasis with the inimitable Muru in charge, anticipating ones needs - iced coffee, cool flannels, fresh iced fruit. And the Foot Therapist's poolside foot massages should not be missed.

Chi, the Spa is a treat of its own with marvellous massages in the most beautiful surroundings.

The only problem is having to leave at the end of such a blissful stay.

Room Tip: The best rooms are the ones with a garden view.

Overall, it was a good experience for my family of 5 with kids ranging from 11 to 15. They did get a bit bored as the pool experience is a bit limited. The room was a bit worn but given that they are renovating the hotel, I expect in a few months time, it will be better. Service was very good.

Thank you very much for sharing your opinion with us in tripadvisor.com.

We are pleased to know that your enjoyed the service at the reorot. I hope the children had the opportunity to enjoy Segway rides and Adventure Zone with Kid's Club facilities next door at Golden Sands Resort.

We hope that you will come back and experience the newly refurbished rooms at the Garden Wing, on your next visit to Penang.

Came to Rasa Sayang Resort and stayed in Garden Wing in early April. Unfortunately, the hotel was having an upgrading service, but it did not interfere with our stay (in fact, I didn't hear any construction work at all). We had a wonderful time here. The hotel left us a lovely note about the inconvenience caused by the upgrade work, which was a nice gesture.

Location: Batu Ferringhi, 15km from Georgetown (24km from Penang first bridge). It is quite a drive from the town centre, where the heritage sites are. It is in close proximity to beach and sea. About 10 mins walk to Sungai Emas commercial area. You will find lots of convenient stores, banks, 24-hour McDonald's, 7-Eleven, peddlers selling fake goods and souvenir items and hawker centres (try Long Beach hawker centre), restaurants and bars.

Transport: Bus 101 Rapid Penang or taxi could take you here (it may take a while). Shuttle service by hotel is available to town centre (Traders Hotel in Georgetown, another affiliate hotel of Shangri-la chain).

Hotel: Very cosy ambiance, with traditional Malay-styled interior. Even staff are having songket or kebaya as their uniform. At the centre where the sofas are, has this beautiful fan-looking "Tree of Life", and beyond that is the beautiful traditional musical instrument set (performance on Friday evening 6pm). After the lobby area of Garden Wing, the pools are in view with nice shades from two very old trees. Not far from the pool is the beach and sea (Malacca Straits). In comparison with Golden Sands Resort (located next door and also a Shangri-la chain), Rasa Sayang's sandy beach is not as beautiful as Golden Sands. However, this hotel is quieter and more relaxed than Golden Sands. The other side of hotel is Rasa Wing. There has more facilities, e.g. gym, sauna & steam bath, Taichi corner, Chi Spa and Massage, Turtle Conservation Area, Golf Putting Green. The hotel provides daily activities to keep guests engaged, which are really nice. Spice Market Cafe serves good meals with nice ambiance too.

Room: Room is very huge with firm comfortable bed and pillows. I had wonderful nights of rests. Balcony equipped with coffee table and chairs looking out to the pool, old trees and seaside. The ensuite bathroom is fantastically huge and nice, with shower cubicle and bath tub separated. Strong water pressure makes my bathing feels so comfortable. Quality toiletries and plenty of changing towels too. Bottle waters, fruits platter, changing outdoor slippers are good gestures too.

Overall experience was very good with Rasa Sayang Resort. I had a wonderful and relaxing time in this hotel. Will definitely come here again!

Room Tip: Room with view of pool and sea would be the best!

We stayed here for 3 nights in April, before transferring to a planned two night stay at the Eastern and Oriental. How we wished we had stayed put at the Rasa Sayang! Wonderful, attentive and courteous staff; a relaxing location and excellent afternoon tea, drinks and canapés (the only let down were the poor cocktails - but the wine and beer make up for it) in the Rasa Wing. Would definitely recommend the resort.
